IMPROVE your MIX with LOW FREQUENCY cleanup | Mixing for Producers


Low end cleanup is one of the most important, yet most overlooked techniques for improving a mix. Creating space for all your low end instruments starts with all the OTHER elements—taking care to remove the unneeded lower frequencies in other tracks that are clouding the mix. In this tutorial, mixing engineer Mario Borgatta demonstrates low end cleanup on a track he’s mixing called "OVER IT!" by koby, and demonstrates how to use hi-pass filters, Brick Wall EQ, and make adjustments to the length and relationship of kick drum to the bass so that everything sounds clean. These techniques to avoid a muddy mix will work within any DAW and similar plugins that you like to use.
